History
The workers in India are only a section of the people and not a class
apart. The culture and their tradition form part of the common heritage of
the people of India. In organizing them and seeking the redressal of their
grievances, ways and means have to be evolved in consonance with our
condition. No more grafting or transplantation of a foreign ideology or
method however suited to the condition else where, is likely to yield healthy
results here. What is required is an indigenous movement having its roots in
the Indian and soil. Such a movement has for long been in existence and
has attained a remarkable center. A new organization, that would give the
correct lead to the working class and strives to established social justice,
peace and security with a constitution and working. Which would be
essentially democratic giving every one of its constituent units ample scope
for free expression of views and action has become imperative.
Thus declared the iron man and unifier of India. Sardar Vallabhbhai
Patel, in his presidential address to unique congregation of national leader
like Pandit Javaharlal Nehru, Jagjivan Ram, Aruna Asaf Ali, Ram Manohar
Lohia, G. Ramanujam, V.V. David, Shankar Rao Deo, B.G. Kher, O.P.
Ramasami Reddiar, Ravi ShankarShukla, Hare Krishna Mehtab, S.K. Patil,
Kamaldevi Chattopadhyaya, Ahoka Mehta, R.R. Diwakar and Bhimasen
Sacar. Prominent among the labour leaders attending the conference were
G.L. Nanda, Khadubhai Desai, Suresh Chandra Banerjee, Abid Ali
Jaffarbhoy Michael John, Deven Sen, Harihar Nath Shashtri, S.R. Vasavda,
S.P. Sen, R.K. Khedgikar, G.L. Mapara and G.D. Ambekar. They had all
gathered at conference, held at the Constitution Club, New Delhi on May 3
and 4 ,1947 , determined to form a new trade union centre which could
voice the genuine demands for realizing the aspirations of the working class
in the country, at the same time keeping the national interest foremost in
view. The number of trade unions centre which could voice the genuine
demands for realization of the working class in the country, at the same
time keeping the national interest foremost in view. The number of trade
unions represented at the same conference was 200 with a total
membership of over 5,65,000.
Acharya J.B. Kripalani, the then president of the Indian National Congess
who inaugurated the conference, in his address said: The proposed
organization should not hesitate to employe the weapon of strike, if it were
essential to promote the true interest of labour. But that weapon is to be
employed only after due consideration and with aim was to achieve any
legitimate economic and social objective. But it would however , not only be
misuse of this weapon but doing actual harm to labours own interests if it
were to be employes for the attainment of sectional political ends. If labour
were to submit its organized strength to such exploitation. It would become
a mere tool in the hands of unscrupulous party politicians.
Blessing the new organization, the Acharya said: It is a happy augury for
the Indian working class that trained and trusted leaders of the labour
movement are starting the new central organization on healthy lines.
Explaining the circumstances that led to the proposed organization, Shri
Ghulzari Lal Nanda, Secretary of the Hindustan Mazdoor Sewak Sangh
under whose auspices the meeting was held, pointed out that to disclosed
the productive organization of the nation at that crucial period in the history
of the country was really to strike a direct blow on the life of the nation and
its political integrity and it would harm which the communist activity was
causing from day to day if to mischief was not counteracted at once.
Concluding Shri Nanda said: While there is no common ground between
those inspired by communist philosophy and those who have fail in
democracy, the proposed organization can provide a broad platform and
ensure the largest measure of unity as the latter in pursuit of the aim of the
labour movement.
The main resolution moved by Dr. Suresh Chandra Banrjee said: Whereas
the course of the labour movement in the country is taking under the
leadership of those who are opposed to peaceful change and democratic
methods has provide extremely detrimental to the growth of strong and
healthy trade unionism and is doing incalculable harm to the true interest of
the masses of the country and whereas it has become a scared and
imperative obligation of those who are for the well-being of the working class
to take concerted action to safeguard and promote its interest, it is resolved
that to give effect to this purpose, an organization called the INDIAN
NATIONAL TRDE UNION CONGRESS be formed.

The resolution was by late Michael John and was passed by an
overwhelming majority.
Thus INTUC was born on May 3, 1947 as historic necessity, just before
Indian attained independence. The constitution of INTUC was adopted in the
second days proceedings of the conference, Mahatma Gandhi who was then
in Delhi also blessed the new found trade union centre.
